PGA Tour professional Kris Blanks was arrested June 30 at Palm Beach International Airport after it was discovered he was carrying a handgun in his carry-on bag. Blanks was on his way to a charity golf event, but was stopped before he could board the plane.

As the bag went through screening, a Transportation Safety Administration officer found a .40-caliber Glock 27 with eight rounds in the magazine, a Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office report said.... Blanks said he forgot to take his gun out of the bag after he returned home from a road trip the week before, the report said. He added he did not have a concealed weapons permit.
